Wizard, Temple, Scratch, Web, Folders - what have these to do with AutoCAD? This is just some of the new phraseology associated with AutoCAD Release 14. Incorporating several new features and concepts, Release 14 is designed to be used with either Windows NT or Windows 95 operating systems. The objective of this book is to introduce the reader to the essential basic 2D drafting skills required by every AutoCAD user, whether at the introductory, intermediate or advanced level. The user can then progress to more demanding topics such as 3D modeling, customization and AutoLISP programming. The book is invaluable for students studying City and Guild or BTEC CAD courses, as well as undergraduates and post-graduates in higher intitutions who require AutoCAD draughting skills. Industrial CAD users can use it as both a textbook and reference source.
